Doduše nije reč o kalibru pištolja, ali nisam mogao odoljeti da se malo poigram sa naslovom zbog sličnosti riječi...
. Uglavnom riječ je o sljedećem...
Hong Kong mayhem master John Woo's Western influences have been apparent in many of his movies, and now it sounds like he's heading back to the Old West with a six-shooter in one hand and a comic in the other.
Woo has picked up the new Radical Comics title CALIBER, a supernatural retelling of the King Arthur legend set in the post-Civil War past. Woo plans to direct and produce, along with Johnny Depp's company Nihil Infinitum.
I suppose we shouldn't get too excited just yet -- since dipping into the Hollywood pond, Woo developed a tendency to get involved with multiple projects (SPY HUNTER, a ninja movie, METROID, a railroad Western, a PAPILLION remake, etc.) while taking a loooooong time to finish whatever he was working on. He's still finishing up the second part of his historical war epic THE RED CLIFF (the first half was already released in Asia to big bucks), and is then doing a period romance called 1949.
John Woo will direct the comicbook adaptation "Caliber" for Infinitum Nihil, Radical Comics and Lion Rock says Variety.
Radical Comics' hit story sets King Arthur and his knights as 19th century gunslingers in the Pacific Northwest.
"Caliber" is unlikely to be Woo's next pic due to his commitments to finish his ancient war epic "Red Cliff" and shoot the Chinese Revolution romancer "1949".
He's also committed to a remake of 1969 French crime drama "The Sicilian Clan," and American railroad Chinese laborer story "The Divide".
